Dynamic translation
(12:21) The one from Egypt who bought him said to his wife: "Make his stay generous, perhaps he will benefit us or we may take him as a son." It was thus that We established Joseph in the land and to teach him the interpretation of dreams. Allah has full power over matters, but most of the people do not know.
